WikiLeaks Proves Obama’s Dereliction of Duty

And the hits just keep on coming from WikiLeaks. It seems every new day brings fresh revelations about just how unimportant the security of our nation is to the president of the United States. As loathsome as the effeminate waif Julian Assange is, if we had to suffer damage to our country by his hands, at least we learned about our own enemy within.

The leaked memos confirm that our leaders are fully aware that our nation’s enemies are engaging in activities to undermine the United States. Yet armed with this knowledge, Barack Obama continues his foreign policy of appeasement. We’ve learned that terrorists now have access to nuclear material through a known state sponsor of terror. And the president’s inept policy of “let’s just talk more” remains the administration’s de facto position. It seems that all this “foreign affairs” stuff is just a distraction to this president. It’s really cutting into to his agenda of remaking America. It is now all too clear that defending this nation from our enemies is the last thing on the president’s mind. In this case, what we don’t know will hurt us.

In February 2009 the U.S. ambassador to Kyrgyzstan confronted his Chinese counterpart over allegations that China offered the former Soviet state $3 billion to close a U.S. air base there.

In September 2009 Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton expressed concern about a Chinese company selling French thermal-imaging technology to Iran that could be used against U.S. and allied forces in the Gulf.

In February 2010 Mrs. Clinton asked China to act on intelligence information that suggests Iran is trying to buy Russian gyroscopes and carbon fiber for its ballistic missiles from Chinese companies.

And in May 2010 Clinton expressed concern about Chinese companies exporting chemical weapons precursors to Iran. One cable stated that a Chinese contact told the American Embassy in Beijing in January that the widely reported hacking attack on Google was part of a coordinated campaign of computer sabotage carried out by government operatives, private security experts, and internet outlaws recruited by the Chinese government.

Anyone else see a pattern here? It’s clear that President Obama is an ideological ally of the leadership in China. But he’s still America’s president, right?

Add to all of this the revelation that U.S. officials believe that Beijing ordered a cyber-attack on the U.S. in which 15 percent of the world’s Internet traffic was diverted through Chinese servers for 18 minutes last spring. China is a hostile adversary to the United States. Yet the Obama administration pursues fiscal policies that continually leave us at the economic mercy of that Communist nation. Obama and his cronies continue to borrow and spend us into Chinese dependency. Is it any wonder why the administration didn’t want us to know the extent of China’s treachery? If the American people had known, they would have demanded action. And the president of the United States would have to admit that he has maneuvered us into an economic position that has zero leverage to effectively deal with an ever-aggressive China. Now that we do know, it might serve national security interest to remind the president as we head toward 2012.

Can You Say Big Brother?

Wikileaks is handing Obama justification of government seizure and control of the Internet on a silver platter.

The notion that Obama will have anything to do with protecting and defending the people of the United States is ridiculous. The man embraces Islam and Black Liberation Theology; both of which can and do gravely damage our nation.

You know nothing about communism or socialism. If you did you would not call Obama anything near communist. We socialists too dislike Obama. So, ironically, you have more in common with a Marxist than a Democrat.

America… sadly you’re stuffed. You would have been better off with Dan Quayle.
Maybe a solution would be to have Barrak H. O. meet a Lee H. O… somewhere in downtown Dallas. “Say… Any room in that convertible for a Clinton? “Driver… slow down as you approach that grassy knoll…” Rude, I know, but it gives me hope – for a change.

Our President is either the stupidest man to ever occupy the White House, or he is deliberately weakening America in the 2 most vital areas: defense and economy. I pick Door #2.

For years I have not understood why we elect Presidents based on their political views on non-national issues such as abortion, gay rights, etc. Defense and economy. Period. Leave the rest to the States. Elect a President who loves this country and its traditions and who meant his sacred oath when he swore it: to protect and defend the people of the United States.

As an aside, don’t tighten the economic belt on the military with the smallest pay raise since 1962, during a 2-front war and extended duty rotations for our soldiers.

My 1st thought upon hearing about the North Korea shelling was that our esteemed President was probably pissed to be awakened at 3 a.m. in the morning over such a trivial, unimportant issue. It wasn’t something really important, like cramming ObamaCare down our throats.

POTUS has become IMPOTENT. We’re an international laughing stock and an easy target.

We agree. I have friends that vote for pesident because they do/do not support abortion…they agree with nothing else. Are we that stupid?..maybe.

We hear so much about shutting wikileaks down..I dont’ know if i agree. it seems we need to hear more and put it in the faces of American voters. Americans seem to need help understanding what the hell this man Obama is doing to our country!! We appear to be as petty as the he is. Abortion, skin color all totally disgusting.

“WikiLeaks has confirmed for the American people what foreign governments already know: Barack Obama is an ideological leftist who won’t stand up for his own country’s interests. The president projects weakness around the world. Our enemies smell blood in the water. And the president, undeterred by world events, plods along with his efforts to remake America into a European style socialist state.”

I think the last election proved that the American people are starting to understand this. Obama desperately wants America to be France and the American people just don’t want to have any part of that. Obama is not an American at all. He desperately thinks himself a European in every sense of the word. He ADORES the European nanny state, he loves the European style of diplomacy (where you talk a subject to death but never do anything about it), and he is thrilled with the way the Europeans spend money on social welfare programs (spend it all now and stick somebody else with the bill). He could care less about being a world power and he does not have a clue as to what it would mean to the rest of the world if the United States was NOT a superpower. Would Obama feel more comfortable seeing China as the world’s only superpower? Sure he would, and he does not understand how that would affect the United States as well as the free world.

We need a Ronald Reagan now more than ever. We not only need a person who believes in American exceptionalism, but we need a person who understand that we are the world’s last best hope for survival. That is, of course, unless you don’t mind having the rest of the world live under the thumb of a communist country like China.

“…Iran is just as entitled to the ability to wipe out vast numbers of people as is the United States.”

It’s hard for me to imagine a more frighteningly ignorant statement.

The idea that the United States must micro-manage sovereign nations across the world as if they were part of our country is a recipe for hostility and war. Our moral posturing and military strategy which is frozen in 1946 is a disaster.

Let Asia defend itself and work out it’s own problems. Let Europe fend off Russia as best it can. Let China self-destruct in a haze of pollution, over industrialization and over population. Let Islam stay asleep in a 13th century bed of narcissism and simply deny them immigration to the US.

I agree that Obama is as ignorant a President as we have ever had but he is inheriting policies that are utterly bankrupt and prejudicial to the interests of America though we apparently firmly believe otherwise.

Having such a President at the helm will only add confusion since, informationally and intellectually speaking, he is a lightweight entirely out of his depth. Obama is an American Idol contestant who believes he is Frank Sinatra.

James May,
I am afraid you do not understand politics. If you leave your allies high and dry then do not later cry and ask “why no-one like us?” And do not expect that someone will help you in necessity.
You president Obama went back on the promises made to Polish people re: ballistic missile defense, even as our high-level bureaucrats tried to remind Obama of US obligations and wanted to give US secret materials about Russian activities in “Kaliningrad oblast”. We even told your administration that we “want US soldiers in Poland.” But hey, Obama preferred to suck up to Russia and got nothing for his troubles. Iran still arms itself with missiles and develops nuclear weapons, and Russia still spies on you.
That’s what you rightly get when you suck up to your enemies and giving finger to your allies.

The leaked documents confirm China’s status as enemy but they don’t tell us anything about Obama that wasn’t obvious from his failure to respond to the Wikileaks months ago; his failure to support the inchoate revolution in Iran; his pathetic response to the Fort Hood terrorist attacks; his handling of the Gulf Oil crisis and his mismanagement of the economy

Obama’s end goal is to make sure that the US becomes a shadow of itself, a paper tiger of sorts.

To this end, it suits him very well that N Korea and Iran run amok as nuclear powers AND proliferate their wares.

We know this because a logical, non treasonous leader would strengthen the national hand, thus weakening the enemy hand. Obama has done the EXACT opposite, of course, all in order to usher in a more ‘peaceful’ world,where NO nation is above another.

This is Obama’s end goal as demonstrated by Wikileaks,shrill hysteria against the leaks notwithstanding.

Just as each of the players on my kids’ athletic teams got trophies at season’s end, win, lose, or draw, shouldn’t each nation of the world get nuclear capability? After all, who is to decide which nations are more deserving? It would be unequal and certainly judgmental to allow some to have and some to have not. Not only judgmental, but for the West to decide, it would be neo-colonialist, wouldn’t it?

I have been saying since the man announced his intention to run for president that this man was “Neville CHamberland” all over again nobody listen, I lost friends who said I was being racist. Well look what has come to pass he really is who I said he was. The acadamia revisionist historians have gotten their way. We stopped teaching true American and World History in favor of the revisions, the generations who were the primary voters who elected this idiot are the same ones we failed to teach the true history. Those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it.

The “apparatus” that allowed the Wikileaks stuff to happen in the first place was all set up by “He Who Must Not Be Named” after 9/11, and of course it’s turned out to be yet another colossal mess for Obama and his people to deal with.

And this “appeasement” stuff is even more so bizarre right wing rubbish than ever, given Obama relentlessly following up on his word to attack al-Qaeda where they operate, and how Wikileaks showing Hilary being a bit of a dragon lady when it comes to matters of state.

Are you kidding? Do you think 911 didn’t happen? (Did the Holocaust?) Everyone, Dems and Repubs alike, supported the initial strikes into both countries. Bush wasn’t perfect, but my God, Obama isn’t even on the right side.

BC, are you not up on current events. Tens of thousands of Iranians, and tens of thousands of Iraq’s very own Kurdistanis were killed by mustard gas and nerve gas. We know the Iraqis had WMD because he was busily USING them. Just because we couldn’t find where they hid them doesn’t mean they never existed. Read, study, before posting your thoughts for others to read.

What should be abundantly clear, by viewing Obama’s actions in total, is that he is committed to turning the United States of America, into a third world country OR WORSE! How else to explain his actions/inactions.

No, it proves that the massive proliferation of poor-coordinated security systems wasn’t well managed.

That’s the problem with security, particularly with classifications. You make everything super-top-secret, and you have to clear a lot more people to that level. Before you know it, nothing’s REALLY top-secret any more.

That’s ok, though. The next republican with create another umbrella organization to “coordinate” the previous umbrella organizations that took on their own independent lives and agendas. And they’ll make everything even MORE top-top-super-secret. That’ll fix everything.

It it’s true that 2-3 million people had access to this stuff, then that’s your problem. That didn’t happen overnight. The question is – how many people have access to the GOOD stuff?
